Description

*This Cabinet has now SOLD - but another can be reproduced for you as part of my ‘Commission Service’. Feel free get in touch here to discuss how I can help create your bespoke piece of furniture, tailored to your specific requirements.*

- - - - -

Dating from 1954, yet based on the distinctive Art Deco period stylings of the 1920’s, this substantial cocktail cabinet by ‘Beautility’ has been treated to the most unique of refinishes. Its tola and walnut construction has been revived and redesigned in a manner that not only highlights its stunning design features - with its raised, undulating panels and elegant curves - but also fully embraces its Deco origins. A multicoloured, geometric ‘sunburst’ design, influenced by stained glass ‘picture windows’ of the ‘20s-‘30s and the popular ‘Streamline Moderne’ architectural and industrial design movement of the Deco period, it is now a lavish tribute to this unparalleled period of style, whilst remaining an enviable addition to any design-conscious contemporary home.

- completely stripped of its original finish and carefully sanded to remove decades of unsightly marks, its carcass (with its otherworldly woodgrain) has been refinished with a hardwearing wax-oil and now shimmers again

- the central drop-down section, with sliding door and drawers, has been completely redesigned using a selection of tinted wax oils, stains and handpainted gold pinstripes. The design ‘wraps’ around the raised wood sections creating an almost 3-D effect, whilst the sun’s rays to the sliding door rise and fall with operation of the drop-down door. The original metal handles, with their ornate, floral appliqué design and decorative baseplate, have been cleaned and re-gilded with gold gilding wax and sealed. So too, all hinges and mechanisms have been re-gilded, whilst new brass magnetic catches have been fitted to all doors

- internally, the glamorous drink-serving section has a new mirror fitted to the base which bounces light around from the newly added, streamlined, rechargeable LED strip-light which is discreetly affixed to the underside of the sliding door. The light is easily accessible and removable via a magnetic strip, and has several functions, including ‘on’, ‘off’, ‘motion sensing’, stepless dimming, and can be adjusted to ‘warm light’, ‘natural light’ or a mixture of the two. The underside of the sliding door has been painted gold which is pleasingly reflected in the new mirror, as has the recessed section of the drop-down door. The original mirror, with only some slight, discrete ghosting in accordance with its age, is retained at the back of the cabinet

- the two side cabinets have been thoroughly painted in a custom mix of gold mineral paint, whilst newly-cut mirrors are inserted into the bases adding as sense of luxury to the storage of your treasured wines and spirits

- both drawers have been thoroughly cleaned and oiled, with a soft ‘wine red’ leatherette fitted to the top drawer enabling protected horizontal storage for up to 6 standard wine bottles

- the legs, feet, and elongated curved stretcher have been completely refinished with a mixture of wax oil and gold paint, elevating the entire piece. Indeed, the reverse of the stretcher is also painted gold - in the unlikely event you ever catch a glimpse of it!

Condition report:

All of our furniture is vintage or antique and has enjoyed a lengthy previous life. Whilst professionally refinished/restored, some minor or discreet signs of wear may remain, or other age-related indicators such as pitting to metalwork, or ghosting to mirrored sections may be present. Such minor imperfections only serve to add to the provenance and history of the pieces but should you have any concerns about any aspect of condition, feel free to contact us here and I’ll be only to happy help.

Cancellations and Returns

Last updated: 17th October 2024

Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.

To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.

If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item's Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.

Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.

Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.

Can I cancel an order?

If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason not to purchase the Goods before they have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.

The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to the customer's specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.

If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the delivery costs are non-refundable.

To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.

Can I return an item?

At Vinterior, we understand that sometimes a piece may not be the perfect fit once it's in your home. That's why we offer a 14-day return policy, allowing you to return any item within 14 days from the date of delivery for any reason.

In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund or to have the issue fixed when possible.

Please note that certain items are non-refundable, including those that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to your specific requirements.

Types of returns and responsibilities

Change of mind return

Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.

Item not fit for purpose

Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.

Damage in transit

Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.

How to request a return

To initiate a return the customer needs to log in to their Vinterior account and click Create a return on the order page. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.

How you will be refunded?

Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt of the item, and Vinterior will refund the original payment method.

If an item is returned to the seller damaged or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund, and the seller may have to send it back (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.

What can't be returned?

As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer's specific requirements.

Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.

Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.

Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
